Huh? 49ers SS Donte Whitner has filed official paperwork to change his last name to "Hitner." "That's what I do. It's my last name and removing a letter makes it pretty cool," he said. One of the league's poster boys for illegal hits on defenseless receivers, Whitner was most recently fined...

I've been watching some tapes from his games this year and I just get the feeling he is right there on the edge about to bust out Calvin Johnson style. His size, speed, and jumping ability make him impossible to cover. He is just on the cusp and I think once he gets the mental toughness down he...

I just don't understand this guy. I took him in the 2nd round over both Brees and Brady, expecting a monster year with a full year of Jackson and the rest of the offense intact. Through 4 games, he has thrown more INTs than TDs and has the likes of Jason Campbell ahead of him in fantasy points...

I really need some WR help and the options on my WW are not too appealing. In your opinion, who will be the guy that will come out of nowhere to post WR1 numbers much like Brandon Lloyd and Miles Austin did the last couple of years? Here are some candidates that have potential. All of these...

Did anybody catch the latest episode over the weekend? I was absolutely shocked at the attitude that MJD had on there. When the host repeatedly questioned him about his knee and how fantasy owners are rightfully concerned about it heading into the season, his responses were downright pompous and...

Putting fantasy aside, from an NFL team perspective, how does it make sense to give your starting RB 56 carries over two games when you have a stud right behind him languishing away on the bench? I also might add that it's a very high paid stud (McGahee). With the NFL going to more of committee...

I have open roster spot and I see some backup RBs on the waiver wire that could hold some value down the road. Trouble is, none of them get any touches right now but could if the starter ahead of them gets hurt. Who should I target out of this bunch that has the most likely chance of starting...

I didn't see this discussed in another thread... But, for the rest of the season, who is going to have the most value in that bunch? It seems there is a new flavor of the week each week and they may all just cancel each other out. Will there be one that emerges from the pack? Currently, I...

How did they end up flat out cutting this guy, not even trading him, just releasing him? Does anybody know what they didn't like? He had 78 solo tackles for them in 2008. He is a baller in Rodney Harrison type mold. He's a beast.

It looks like he's getting more involved in the offense every week. In week 3, he had 11 targets and had 5 catches for 58 yards and had 74 and a touchdown the week before. He's also being called on to run the ball a few times. Seeing as there is no clear receiving option in Cleveland and...

Sage has had success anytime he's been in the lineup. I liked him when he came in for Schaub in Houston. Granted he made some mental mistakes and threw a lot of picks, I thought he was a pretty good NFL QB and can easily be the starter in that offense. Even in the first preseason game this year...

I planned ahead to the playoffs, I looked at the matchups, I saw Mendenhall was playing Cleveland in the first round. I thought hmmm...they are the worst run D and he should have a field day. Let me make sure I roster him and I did via trade. And then he goes out and puts up that kind of...

Danieal Manning is expected to be relegated to nickel duties while Kevin Payne takes over his job. Somebody please help me understand this. According to Lovie, Manning is the most athletic guy on the team. He has been outstanding on defense (in fact, is the #2 DB in our league behind Woodson)...

He didn't 'realize' he was going that fast?? Um, Adrian, you were going twice the speed limit. http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/34260276/ns/sports-nfl/ MINNEAPOLIS - Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson was cited for speeding over the weekend after police clocked him driving 109 mph on...

The 'banning' of the Captain Morgan pose last week got me to thinking about the celebration Larry Johnson used to do, especially back in 2006 when he was scoring all those touchdowns. Each time he scored, he would make a diamond symbol with his hands. For the longest time, I wondered what that...

I don't think I can continue to put him in my lineup and get burned week after week. Is it time to say that Driver has taken over the #1 receiver role (something I've never seen happen where a 30 something takes back his job) and Jennings is officially gone the way of Michael Clayton?

Yeah, I'm sure fantasy owners forgive him. Everyone wants to know why Jaguars receiver Mike Sims-Walker was deactivated for Sunday’s 41-0 blowout at Seattle. Well, the answer is simpler than you think. Sims-Walker missed bed check Friday night due to a late-night rendezvous with a lady...

I'm surprised no one is talking about about Bowe. I think he is in line for a major breakout for the rest of the season because: 1) The Chiefs will almost always be behind and Cassel will be forced to throw 40 times a game. 2) He and Cassel are just starting to get on the same page because...

I burned a early pick on Moreno in my keeper league due to good things I read about him here and elsewhere. His receiving skills is what enticed me to pick him over other RBs who don't catch the ball much. Looking at last weeks result, I'm getting nervous. 8 carries for 19 yards. Buckhalter also...

These 2 guys are going right after each other in a lot of cheatsheets and mock drafts. Both have their pluses and minuses. Both are projected to have around the same production (85/1280/9). The question is who has the more upside? The obvious answer might be Jennings because you know what you...
